Vegetarian

Being labeled a vegetarian can be a broad statement. At Wildflour Caterers, we use the American Diabetes Association‘s “lacto-ovo vegetarian” diet to prepare our vegetarian menu. This diet does not include any meat, but it does include dairy products and eggs. Our recipes pay careful attention to blending a mix of vegetables, fruits, beans, whole grains, nuts, and low-fat dairy products.

Veggie Quesadilla — Fill a whole-wheat tortilla with grilled peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes, and low-fat shredded cheese. Eat with pico de gallo and a small amount of reduced-fat sour cream or guacamole.

Veggie Burger or Black Bean Burger — Make these from scratch if you can find a recipe or buy them pre-made from the store. Cook your burger on the grill. Then top with a slice of low-fat cheese, a few slices of avocado, tomato, lettuce, and onion on a whole-wheat roll. It’s easy to make this a vegan meal by just taking out the cheese!

Pizza — Make a cheese pizza with marinara and fresh mozzarella. Top it with your vegetables.

Whole Wheat Pasta with Pesto Sauce — Cook and add your favorite veggies on top of this dish or try eating with a green side salad and low-fat dressing.
